The moulting season, or the season when
hens shed their feathers, will soon be at an
end. The process is one thst in certain re-
spects debilitates and prevents hens from lay
ing. The reason of this is that the growing
of new feathers requires all the nitrogen and
phoephates contained in the food and there is
none left TO form the egg. A curious fact
about the hen and one that illustrates the
foregoing statement, is this, if hens leg be
broken during the laying season, ,he will lay
her eggs without shells until the break is
mended. The reason tor this must be that
all the lime contained in the food is required
to unite the broken bone; there is therefore,
none for the formation of egg shells. The
formation of new feathers does not require
any corbonaceous or fat producing food, con-
sequently we'll fed hens get very fat during
the moulting. Many farmers and poultry
raisers, not understanding all about these
things, kill of their old hens bee .use they
think they have stopped laying and are fat.
This is great mistake, because if the proper
material be furnished them with their food to
supply the increased demand for nitrogen
and phosphates before mentioned, the old
hens will be through shedding feathers much
sooner, and will begin laying on the approach
of cold weather, and they will continue to
lay vigorously all winter. while the young
pullets, reserved to take the place of the old
hens, may not begin to lay until much later
in the season. Very many people have
learned from exp rience that Sheridan's
Condition Powder, mixed once daily with
their food, will supply the extra material
needed to strengthen and nvigorate their
hens, enabling them to grow new plumage
quickly and commence laying early. Those
who commence now to use Sheridsn's Pow
der, will find their young pullets will COM
mence to lay at from four to six months old,
and will lay continuously through the winter.

The BOstOn's Trial Trip.

Secretary Whitney is gradually finding out
that the Roach cruisers are good ships. The
mean horse power developed by the Boston
in the first trial trip is approximately esti-
mated at 300, or 400 more than the contract
required. The maximum is nearly 4 200
No attempt was made to obtain a maximum
speed, as the object of the trial was to test
the working power Of the engines. As there
was a steady run of fourteen and half knots,
with fifteen and half knots at times. it NAV
be safely be assumed that the ship will aver
aye fifteen Knots and under the most favora-
BILE conditions make sixteen knots. The
Secretary has always laid great stress upon
horsepower, having condemned the Dolphin
for deficiency of sixty units, although the
vessel exceeded the required speed and was
structurslly strong. He was not wholly sat
isfed with the Atlanta, since, while unex
pectedly fast, she did not develop every unit
of horsepower contracted for. The Boston
apparently will be acceptable in all respects,
since the horsepower is long way in excess
of the requirements. The designers did not
promise a greater speed than fourteen knots.
The ship will do much better than that, if the
horse power runs up to $500 or 1000.
This is a surprise which the navy depart
ment has not expected. Excess of horse
power has been carefully provided for in the
second series of cruisers, but it was not an
ticipated 10 the Boston. When the contract
was made for the Baltimore the horse. power
was scaled down to 1000, although the Eng
lish plans called for 10, 700 Indeed, the ship
will not be rejected unless the horsepower
falls below 8 200. The same Secretary who con-
sdered meagre deficiency of sixty units fatal
in the case of the Dolphin, allowed his own
contractor a margin of $3.50 in the Baltimore.
If the engines which were designed to de
velop 1880 exceed 5000, the Secretary will
probably be overwhelmed with feelings of
satisfaction. At the same time, the contrsc-
tor will receive large premiums for that arti-
fetal surplus. There is no hocus pocus OF
this kind in the Bostons large excess OF
horse power. 1t is clear. honest gain over
the designed horse power Tribune.

troll the employ of workmen on the pub
lie building for political purposes. Some
of these are respectable citizens, who
would scorn such efforts outside of parti-
san politics. Surely our Augusta Post
Master could not be moved to sanction
such conduct in his own business affairs.
What do they expect to gam by this wan
ton violation of public right9 An in
crease to the democratic vote of Augusta
in 1888. By the iron thumb screw of par
ty pressure and the corrupting influence
of government patronage they hope to re-
duce the republican majority in Augusta.
Cannot they see that what they may gain
in this way will be more than lost by re-
action and public indignation against such
utter disregard of honesty and fair play?
They may rest assured that the people of
this vicinity are moi so debauched by dem
ocratic NAL administration as not to resent
despotic and Ubiquitous doings by public
officials and partisan tools. This prostitu-
ton of official power will grievously dis.
appoint its authors. 1t is in open violation
OF the public conscience. 1t has no as
pect which commends 1t to honest men.
1t defies strong and generally prevailing
sense--the sense of fair play. 1t may
have worked in the dark days of Pierce
and Buchanan. It will not answer in
these days VIII en- the best light of popular
intelligence and public opinion are being
turned on the shameless proceedings of
the Cleveland Administration. The stu
piditv is equal to the crime. Democratic
bunderers and the little men fitting be
tween Augusta and Washington could not
have more effectually plotted their own
defeat and shown the absolute need of re-
publican success. Verify. whom the gods

Political Stupidity and Official
Wickedness.

There are blunders which have not in
them the elements of deliberate wrong
doing-they are the consequences OF a
lack of intelligence or the result of haste
or inadvertence. There are deeds of men
which are blunders as we'll as crimes, be-
cause they are stupid while they plainly
indicate the bad motives and the vulgar
aims of their authors. The crime of cold,
clear. remorseless intellect, whose logic
reaches its end as directly as the rifle ball
its mark, commands certain degree of
respect, because it wears not the garb of
hypocrisy and makes no concealment of
its purposes. The most contemplate of
all human actions are those which unite in
equal proportions. stupidity and wicked
ness. The Cleveland democracy revel in
monopoly of the last named combination
of sin aud folly. This is strikingly Illus
trated in its recent dealings relative to the
Augusta new government building. Its
officials solicited proposals for the compile
ton of the edifice above the foundation and
basement. In so doing they concerned to the
spirit and forms OF the law of the land. Four
strong and responsible business associa-
sions sent in their bids. The Maine and
New Hampshire Granite company offered
to do the job for S74.790; Purington and
Co. of Waterville bid S74.s75; Mt. Waldo
Granite Company $4,000; and the Hal
lowell Granite Company S72.997. The
ncarness of the Hallowell company to the
building and its very extensive facilities

The Western papers continue to print
articles concerning the faulty construction
of the railroads and railroad bridges in
various sections of the West. From these
articles one is forced to conclude that the
owners of the roads have had only the
welfare Of their pocket books at stake and
have many times accounted for accidents
by asserting causes which in reality had
nothing to do with them. The attempts to
conceal the real extent of the Chatworth
disaster by officially reporting forty seven
less dead than there were actually killed
showed disposition to deceive the public.
Public demand is forcing the owners Of
roads to make better provisions for the
safety of passengers, and the legislatures
of several States will be called upon to
legislate to that effect.
